Many of them shared the same thoughts. Although Li Cheng had only been on the lost continent for seven days, the changes he brought were not insignificant.
At present, Li Cheng’s reputation value was ridiculously high. He was almost a household name on the entire continent. Even the Gods often mentioned his name.
When someone spoke, the others began to discuss.
“As far as I know, the Earl Netherworld massacred a large number of players from other worlds. This is definitely not something a kind paladin should do!”
“He also had a few evil pieces of equipment on him. I’m afraid that he might’ve come from some Demon God…”
“He traveled to and from the underground world a few times, but his whereabouts and purpose were unknown. No one knows what he was up to.”
The group leaders expressed their suspicions toward Li Cheng. Meanwhile, Vic and the two bishops looked as if they were deep in thought. It was obvious that they were thinking about their words.
When she heard these words, Asilia could not take it anymore. She said with dissatisfaction, “Group leaders, even if Earl Netherworld isn’t a devout paladin, he’s definitely not an evil person!”
As the Saintess of the Church of Light and despite not having a deep understanding of the world, Asilia was not a fool. During the few days she spent with Li Cheng, she had long noticed that Li Cheng was hiding something from her. However, she was smart enough not to ask him about it.
As a Saintess, she was extremely sensitive to everyone’s hearts, be it good or evil.
Li Cheng did not give her the impression that he was a kind person, but he was definitely not an evil person.
Commander Vic waved his hand and interrupted their possible quarrel. He said, “In any case, what Earl Netherworld’s doing is beneficial to light and justice. As for the future, none of us can predict it, so let’s not say anything else.
“Moreover, whether he’s an evil person or not, the great God of Light will naturally send a divine order.
“This matter ends here. We’re not allowed to discuss anything in private.”
…
At this time, Li Cheng had already returned to his own territory. He did not care about the thoughts of the Church of Light. As long as there was insufficient evidence, these paladins would not make a move against him.
Li Cheng checked the situation in his territory. All his troops were ready and his heroes looked eager.
Soon, countless figures walked out of the portal. They were all refugees from the City of Light.
“Ding, dong, nine million six hundred thousand tier two human militia have temporarily joined your territory!
“Ding, dong, sixty-five million eight hundred thousand tier one weak human militia have temporarily joined your territory!
“Ding, dong…
“Ding, dong, three million two hundred thousand Crown-grade elven royal guards have temporarily joined your territory!
“Ding, dong…”
Hearing this prompt, Li Cheng froze for a moment. Elven royal guards? He took a closer look. Those were f*cking Crown soldiers! And the church said they were refugees?
Thinking of this, Li Cheng looked toward the portal. In front of the portal, there were some troops that were obviously different from the other units. They were wearing polished golden armor and their bodies were relatively slender. They also had long pointy ears.
In their left hands were long spears carved with intricate patterns, while in their right, they held golden shields that were half the height of an average person.
They looked very similar to the Dark Elves. The only difference was that they were all male and they all had fair skin.
From their appearance alone, Li Cheng deduced that these elves should be Sun Elves from the Elven Forest.
In fact, elves were divided into many races, and the ones with the most number of people were the Sun Elves standing in front of him, followed by the Moon Elves, Star Elves, Sea Elves, Wing Elves, Snow Elves, and so on…
At this time, the Elf team slowly dispersed, and a slender figure wearing tight-fitting leather armor walked out. It was an extremely beautiful Elven lady, and her cheeks perfectly reflected the elegance and beauty of elves. It was simply a face with flawless features!
At this moment, Li Cheng cast a scouting spell and the information about her appeared in front of him.
[Elven Princess Reyya]
[Description: A member of the Royal Family from the Elven Forest. She has already become famous thousands of years ago. It is rumored that she is the first member of the royal family among the Elves to step into the Mythical grade For thousands of years, she has been guarding the safety of the Elven Forest.]
[Level: ???]
[Grade: Mythical (Tier 9)]
[HP: ???]
[Attack: ???]
[Defense: ???]
[Skills: ???]
Although the detection spell had given him a series of question marks, Li Cheng’s pupils still shrank when he saw the name.
‘Reyya, it’s actually her…’.
In his previous life, Li Cheng’s understanding of Reyya was that she would inherit the throne and become the Elven Empress in a few years. Under her leadership, the huge Elven empire seemed to become stronger and more united.
At this time, Reyya came before Li Cheng and said with a smile, “Hello, Earl Netherworld.”
Li Cheng looked at her almost perfect face and could not help but feel dazzled for a moment. Unlike his few female heroes, Reyya’s beauty was flawless to the extreme, making people feel as though they were dreaming. It was unrealistic.
Li Cheng took a deep breath and asked, “Why did the Princess come to my territory?”
“To seek refuge!” Reyya smiled.
Li Cheng was speechless. ‘What kind of joke is that? You really came to seek refuge?
‘You’re a Mythical-grade powerhouse, and you brought three million soldiers to seek refuge with a tier-three Lord? Are you here to amuse me?’
Thinking of this, Li Cheng raised his eyebrows and said, “Are you sure?”
“Of course.” Reyya nodded in response.
“Then, all refugees must listen to my command. Please, turn around and walk for five hundred meters, then find a place to cool down.”
Reyya’s beautiful face instantly froze. If she walked back, it would mean walking through the portal. Not to mention 500 meters, even if it was only 50 meters, she would be able to reach the City of Light.
However, Reyya quickly revealed a smile to hide her loss of composure and said, “Hehe, Earl Netherworld’s really interesting…”
Li Cheng did not respond to this. He actually did not hate or like the Elven Empire much.
These pointy-eared elves were really too xenophobic. They were arrogant, self-contained, and they looked down on the other races of the lost continent.
Typically, the Elven Empire forbade humans from entering their territory. After the two worlds merged, they still looked at the humans coldly from the sidelines.
At this time, Reyya was aware of Li Cheng’s impatience.. She put away the smile on her face and said seriously, “Are you interested in becoming my prince consort, Earl Netherworld?”
